BENTONE GEL® VS-5 V HV

Non-animal origin rheological additive for Cosmetics and Toiletries

This grade is designed to impart rheological control and suspension to organic- and silicone-based cosmetics.

BENTONE GEL VS-5 V HV is a specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in volatile silicone (pentamer).

BENTONE GEL VS-5 V HV is also particularly useful in emulsions and can be used in "cold process" systems. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel by masking greasy or tacky components and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin.

BENTONE GEL VS-5 V HV is an alternative to traditional polymer or cellulose-based thickeners for stabilizing emulsions.
